To See

An abundance of flora and fauna can be found in the area surrounding Siempre Verde.

The land is home to a variety of animal species, including mammals (such as the spectacled bear), birds, and reptiles. The plate-billed mountain toucan, the yellow-eared parrot, and the resplendent quetzal are just a few of the endangered bird species sighted in the branches surrounding the research station. A population of rare frogs are found within this protected forest, as well.

The Tropical Andes region is one of the richest and most diverse ecosystems on Earth, and also among the most endangered. Within this vanishing region lies Siempre Verde, an 825-acre protected preserve and research center created by The Lovett School.
